BATHROOM TRENDS 2020

The biggest 2020 bathroom design trends are here, to name a few:

The Back to Wall Bath

Freestanding baths have become an undeniable feature in larger bathrooms. But for smaller spaces they often prove trickier to work in. Along comes the  back to wall bath , which gives you the best of both worlds. Because they don’t need to be fixed into a recess, this style of bath takes up less space. You still get the look and feel of a show-stopping free stander, and there’s no issue with cleaning behind it. This one’s the ultimate problem solver.

Designer Vanities

First vanities came off the floor, then they got even better with the introduction of dual basins. Now, they’re getting even more designer. Gone are the days of vanities fading into the background.

Exposed Plumbing

Powder rooms are becoming the new design destination in homes. The secluded nature of these spaces allows you to be more adventurous with your style choices. Roll out the wallpaper, install some high-drama lighting. And of course, don’t be afraid to embrace the concept of exposed plumbing. And who doesn’t love that?

New Tap ware Colors

The days of chrome tap ware being the only choice are over. There are a tone of new tap ware tones and materials on the market now. And they give you the ability to craft out a tailor-made bathroom that speaks to the style you’ve got going on in the rest of your home. From  Boho Luxe  to  Modern Hamptons , there’s a new tap color for almost every scheme on the market.

Walk-In Showers

The bathroom is becoming more of an experience. I’m not sure you can class it as a second living room just yet, but it’s safe to say that it’s getting larger and more immersive. Of all the 2020 bathroom design trends in this post, I say this one is here to stay. Larger wet zones (where the shower and bath sit in one connected area, like the space above via  Beaumont Tiles ) are now very sought-after. Double showerheads are a must. And frameless, walk-in showers are in demand too.

Rimless Toilets

There’s going to be a time in our lives that we look back and wonder how we ever lived without a rimless toilet. This new technology means there are no hard-to-reach places, and with every flush you’re getting a full toilet clean. There’s no splashing to be seen, and there’s minimum water usage too. This is going to be a big 2020 bathroom design trend, for sure, but it will become the norm in years to come. Watch the video below to see it in action. Sadly there’s no more need for toilet duck!

Backlit Mirrors

Not only are mirror shapes in bathrooms evolving (we love an oval or  circular mirror, don’t we? ) but lighting has become the hot new trend. Backlit mirrors are perfect for windowless bathrooms that require more light, but they’re also stunning for makeup application. A backlit mirror in a bathroom also makes it the hero piece in your room. So if you want a standout design moment around your vanity, this is the way to achieve it.

Thermostat Mixers

Technology is moving at a pace I can hardly keep up with. But a  thermostat mixer  is definitely a 2020 bathroom trend I can get used to. At the touch of a button the mixer can supply your ideal water temperature every time, so you essentially set and forget. No scolding water (ideal for those of you with young kids) and no waiting forever for the water to heat up in the middle of winter. Shut up and take my money!
